This is my final post on this offtopic discussion, so email me privately, please.
Does Fedora have an off-topic list for Fedorans to talk about anything ? I fixed the problem that I was having with the rpm-distro, OpenMandriva. They apparently only have two mirrors for the install I was using, and one of those is possibly dead, and the install defaulted to the dead one. It went unnoticed, I think because most of their users are in France and Italy. Along the way, their forum members, figured out my problem, but I ended up finding two articles on their wiki to help me change the mirror to the correct one. $ sudo dnf --refresh install om-mirror-selector $ sudo om-mirror-selector.sh -m So now I have 4 functional operating systems on my computer on separate drives: Fedora Rawhide, Fedora 33, OpenMandriva Alpha, and OpenMandriva Cooker with zen kernel ( znver1 ) built using clang. Their leader, Bero, said their server was down yesterday, so I guess that didn't help. They apparently have a team of at least 10 developers using Element as their chat forum. They were helpful. They have one guy doing a mass-rebuild this week. OpenMandriva uses Calamares installer, defaults to ext4, and KDE Plasma 5.19 depending on the release you install. The funny thing is that I still feel like a Linux novice, as there are hundreds of things that I have no grasp of: gaming, virtual-machines, samba, actual practical use of the software, like gnucash, but especially troubleshooting, and especially with troubleshooting wi-fi, and printer problems, zero knowledge of perl, rust, python, bash, and only know a few terminal commands, etc. Cheers, David Locklear
